Ok, typing it is not a big deal, but how can he get hold of the ID of any
user in the same WLAN within seconds?

And: If he can do that, isn't faking the User-Agent even an easier deal?

This looks as if the pane sizes (= splitters) would indeed be saved in a
simple cookie. That explains why they sometimes get lost here. Is there no
way to save them permanently (machine-specific, of course)? Could be a
database entry connected to the NIC, IMHO.
